The other day, Russian media like Zvezda.TV and Tsargrad.TV ran a story that declassified CIA documents call Bandera a “fascist” and a “spy for Hitler”…

He divided his time equally between the struggle for “independent Ukraine” and petty debauchery, forcing the wives of his followers and those of the “couriers” sent to the Ukraine, to cohabit with him.
